A lovely forest where you can quickly get out into nature. With a bit of luck, you might spot some birds and deer.

Very close to the large Bregentved estate, you can go for a walk in a vast woodland area. The woods are open to the public.

Rest area, information board and in the background a stage that has certainly not been used for a long time.

The route is suitable for everyone, whether you are walking, cycling, or want to enjoy the route with a stroller, wheelchair or limited mobility.

From the upper edge of the lime quarry you have a very good view of the extent of the mining area. It's possible to drive in, but then it's better on the weekend, there's no construction machinery business there, and you have to go down a few flights of stairs. Turquoise lagoons, chalk-white mountains and ancient fossils. Basking sharks, crocodiles and other prehistoric sea creatures swam here 63 million years ago. At that time the landscape was covered by a great ocean. The Geomuseum Faxe on the edge of the limestone quarry tells the story of the mysterious, prehistoric creatures that suddenly disappeared from the face of the earth. Today, many come to take a look at the scenic gem with the azure waterholes. Source and more: https://sudseeland-mon.de/Faxe-Kalkbruch
